Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The outstanding design quality of the proposal, combined with the absence of any material harm to character, appearance, heritage assets or other planning considerations, outweighs the technical policy breach regarding location outside the planned development limits, particularly given the lack of housing land supply.

The technical policy conflict regarding location outside the planned development limits was outweighed by the outstanding design quality, absence of harm to character and appearance including heritage assets, compliance with the Framework's sustainability principles, and the material consideration of the lack of housing land supply, applying the tilted balance under paragraph 11
